Writing Tutor Programs

Tutoring Options

SCAA Writing Tutors assist with all writing at all stages of the writing process across the curriculum. They can help with making sense of a prompt and starting to brainstorm, developing an outline, discussion board posts, incorporating or synthesizing sources, citations and mechanics, rough drafts, or class presentations, in all subjects.

Paper Drop-Off

The SCAA Nimbus Learning app allows CSUEB students to submit papers and receive tutor feedback asynchronously through the app. Feedback is similar to what they would receive in a one-on-one session. Please select a 60-minute timeblock in Nimbus for asynchronous paper drop-off (you do not need to attend the appointment for this option).

Writing Associates

The Writing Associate (WA) program embeds a SCAA writing tutor into a course that includes a significant amount of writing. The WA serves as an ally to the students and a liaison to the professor. Your professor will introduce the WA if there is one embedded in your class.
